mfitz804 Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 He had a boner during a meeting. You guys took all the good puns and I couldn’t think of any others this early in the morning. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satans Hockey Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 15 hours ago, Nicomo said: For me it’s 2 reasons. The first being rat face. I hated him even before the hit on MoJo. Guy is a world class player, and it’s an embarrassment to the game that he’s out there licking guy’s faces. The other reason is just Boston sports in general. They’ve won like 37 titles in the last couple decades. It’s enough already. If I actually cared about the NFL, MLB and NBA I would probably hate Boston as much as most people so I get it. I just don't care about those sports so Boston doesn't bother me much, I'd rather see them win over the Islanders, Flyers, Carolina and Kovy.

The only Boston team I truly hate is the Patriots (I’m a Dolphins fan). I don’t particularly like the Bruins, but I don’t hate them enough to root against them against the likes of Carolina, a franchise that has repeatedly beaten the Devils in the postseason, and is a division rival. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicomo Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Marchand is enough of a reason alone for me to root against them. If he wasn’t on the team it’d be a different matter (still wouldn’t particularly want to see more Boston titles). I actually like Bergeron a lot, and Pasta is fun to watch.

Colorado Rockies 1976 Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 (edited) I'm pretty indifferent to the Bruins. I hate the Rangers first and foremost. Hated the Bat Boy-led Hurricanes as well for a long time, but for the moment I've grown to be a little indifferent about them as well. I think whenever the Devils start to make the playoffs again, I'll start feeling that pure rivalry hatred a bit more. For baseball it's the Yankees and the Braves (Mets fan). Just the knowledge that the Braves will make the Mets their bitches anytime they need to is always hard to take. In football I used to REALLY hate the Jets, but part of what fuels a rivalry is both teams being on about the same level, or one team constantly getting in your way. Jets haven't really done that TOO much...had their big playoff win up in NE during the Rex Ryan/Mark Sanchez days, and later won a big game in OT against the Pats that helped to cost the Pats the #1 seed, meaning they had to go into Denver come playoff time (they lost). But other than that, Jets have rarely been much of a problem for the Pats in recent years. So I've even softened up on them.

One player is never enough to root against a hated rival for me. I hate the Carolina Hurricanes a lot more than I hate Brad Marchand (and I DO hate him, make no mistake lol). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satans Hockey Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 I don't know if this is actually true but on the Flyers game yesterday they said Philly was the first team ever to lead a series after 3 games after only scoring 3 goals in the series.... That doesn't seem even possible to me, like how has nobody won a game 2-0 and 1-0 and gotten shutout before. It seems like something that would have happened at some point in the history of the playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me it usually is one player that makes me hate a team (Domi, Marchand, etc). Or root against them anyway. I don’t want to see someone I despise lifting the Cup. I also barely even consider teams like Carolina or Washington “division rivals.” Ofc they technically are, but I hate the stupid mega-divisions. I miss the old Atlantic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that’s probably not the case. I still think he’ll get a long term deal, but just not for the money we were all expecting he’d get.

I was all on board with keeping him originally, but now I’ve reached the point where I’m glad the Devils at least got something for him, and that they’re not going to be the ones signing him to a deal that almost seems certain to be a disappointment. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxchaznjxx Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 I don't hate CAR all that much because they never had players I hated even though they broke my heart a few times. Outside of our natural hatred of the Rags and Flyers, if we're going to hate teams for having certain players, how is it we don't all hate TOR when they had Domi, Roberts, Corson, Tucker, & Belak. Those were brutal playoff series the Devils had against that team of douche bags. I would think that would be the most loathed team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I f’ing despise that team and it all goes back to that 2001 series where Domi almost killed Niedermayer and then a bunch of ass hats from Toronto came down with a banner “free Domi” in the corner of CAA at our next home game. I’ve never been as satisfied with winning an early round series as that one. Since then, my hatred of them has just grown since most of the NHL media and associates podcasts are Toronto centric. How many years have they been telling us that they are sitting on the next NHL dynasty? Let me know when they actually win a play-in or play-off series. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is such a ridiculous and unfair take. Guy won an MVP (and 2 Memorial Cups). Are McDavid and Matthews also losers due to lack of playoff success? Was Ovi all those years? Hall is one of the best LW in the game. It will be very interesting to see where he ends up in FA, but if he goes to an actual contender like Colorado I think the “loser” narrative will be over very quickly.
